I keep running lists of my favorite rides over the years, organized by category (and then roughly from easiest to hardest). Some day I’ll figure out something fancier than these ancient HTML tables but they’re good enough for now… Questions about a route? Feel free to email max.bikeit@gmail.com
from casual <25 mile loops from various transit stations (Port Costa! Black Diamond Mines! Livermore wine tasting! Riding in Sonoma via SMART train!), to tougher 50-100 mile days…
you can bike camp, stay in a lighthouse hostel with a cliffside hot tub, or even a motel…
I’ve enjoyed bike touring (and more recently, bikepacking/camping on gravel and dirt), in Montana, Utah / Arizona, from DC to Pittsburgh, across Iowa, and more…
I used to fit a day ride into any trip I made to another country (for vacation or work). More recently, I’ve been traveling to go on multi-week bike tours… solo, with friends, or supported.
I’ve organized dumpling tours, history rides, and more (and joined ones organized by others).
